Why are you so willing to have the general consensus among western science pounded into your asshole with no questions asked, How can you not say none of his theories are based on fact, just cause you dont agree with it doesnt automatically make all of it false and full of shit cause some lone redneck on the internet says so.

Cooked up with his imagination? yeah its all his imagination pumba punka is all fake and gay, people without the ability to even write were cabable of building a stone structure without mortar four stories high out of stone that can only be cut with diamond coated tools moving stone slabs weighing up to 1000tons from a quarry ten klicks away without wood rollers up a steep incline. you obviously didnt pay much attention to the series if you even watched it at all.

I already explained earlier in this thread that all of the assumptions made by Erich about ancient civilizations were all easily dis-proven by simple experimentation. 

It's not a matter "western" or "eastern" or even "alternative", science looks for ways to prove or disprove ideas.

Go take a basic humanities class.

appeals to authority are empty in my mind. I have a lot of people in my family that in places of authority. I am the only one in family with out a doctorate level degree.

but everyone else in my family is old, dumb, and outdated. They got their degrees researching one little thing and that it was just some idea they had in their had. People get degrees doing all kinds of nonsense.

In my mind, data and evidence speak for themselves. with our modern equipment we would probably never start working on an architectural project that would take a hundred years to complete, what makes you think a bunch of guys with sticks and rocks would want to?

Do you have any fucking clue how grandiose a structure would be that would take modern man a hundred years to build? WAY more amazing then the pyramids.

I don't get how you keep arriving at the conclusion that it took alien overlords with vastly superior technology to get primitive man to stack a bunch of fucking rocks on-top of one another.

WHERE IS THE FUCKING EVIDENCE? Point me towards some irrefutable evidence that can only be explained by ALIENS.



The whole point of the ancient wonders of the world, is that the people who built them had little more than rocks, sticks, and ingenuity with which to construct something wonderous.

Frankly, I find this 'ancient alien' theory insulting to human achievement.

What part do you not get that granite cannot...CANNOT be quarried with anything less then topaz ruby sapphire or diamond coated tools its far to hard and these ancient civilizations in your own words "had little more than rocks, sticks, and ingenuity with which to construct something wonderous" sorry but rocks and sticks will not cut through granite.


I still dont see you disproving anything here.

The rocks they used to cut and quarry granite are called emery, same material found in emery cloth. It's harder then granite, and readily available. It's also known to have been in common use during the the bronze age, only recently being replaced by modern materials.

They also used bronze tooling for various tasks involved in quarrying and building.


You fellas should really do some reading outside of yer tinfoil-hat books.

Holy shit folks. We have the first person ever who has figured out how
all the stones and such were cut for all of the ancient buildings.
Good work on the reading man. How could we have made it so far without you??

"Dieter Arnold also postulates emery was used by the Egyptians but so far no emery, either  indigenous or Naxian, has been found in Egypt."

Haha! If I was with that guy I'd say
